I will be out of the country in late July. I'm trying to decide if I should have the form open while I'm away and unable to access anything uploaded, or if it should wait until I return. We've had many people ask for prompt reviews after last year. Honestly, while I don't like having the doors closed, we get very few submissions until August anyway. Just keep your eyes on this thread and I'll let you know when we open things up.

We are considering extending the deadlines. We have had feedback that they are too early. Look for an announcement soon in that regard.

The situation that caused us to shift the dates up has resolved and we're able to move back to more traditional deadlines. We thank you for your hard work and patience as we work to improve The Video Art Track.

I'm considering entering the same video to AWA Pro and NanDesuKan (NDK). Is there some leeway on that exclusive rule for AWA Pro? The deadlines for submission are 2 days apart (8/27 and 8/29), and the contests are 2 weeks apart (NDK happens 2 weeks prior to AWA). I wouldn't release the video till after AWA.
